One Piece: Fist of the World

"Hahaha, let me roll the dice to decide your outcome."

Garp smiled cheerfully, took the dice pushed by Crocodile, and then looked at Rhodes.

For him, as long as these Shichibukai don't secretly unite to plot something, or directly fight.

Such a confrontation is more in the interests of the navy.

"What do you say, boy Rhodes!"

"I have no objection."

Rhodes also pushed the dice in front of him.

Baccarat put her hands on Rhodes' shoulders, leaned down, and sighed softly next to Rhodes' ear.

"You have to make it up to me later, Captain!"

Since he was neither a direct participant in the gambling nor had access to the artifacts used in the gambling, the 'luck' that Baccarat had specially absorbed before was of no use.

And this kind of 'luck' absorbed from others, with Baccarat's current ability, can only be used by herself and cannot be transferred to others at all.

If you want to use your own abilities to improve other people's 'luck', you can only transfer your own 'luck' to the other person.

However, in order to ensure the success of the gambling, Baccarat's own 'luck' alone is not enough. It is necessary to overdraw the 'luck' in the future.

After overdrafting 'luck', the subsequent state of 'degenerating spirit possession' cannot be offset by absorbing 'luck' from others, and can only be endured passively.

In order to ensure that his captain would make no mistakes in the next gambling game, Baccarat maximized his 'luck'.

After leaving a word in Rhode's ear, Bacara stood up directly and walked to the spectator seats without waiting for Rhode's reply.

Tear~~

As soon as Bacara took a step forward, she heard the sound of clothes tearing.

The skirt that was tightly wrapped around her body suddenly tore directly from her waist and abdomen when she stood up.

‘It’s too fast! ’

Bakala paused slightly as thoughts flashed through her mind.

This was also the first time she tried to overdraw her 'luck' and transfer it to someone else.

In the previous battle on Ravis Island, although I had overdrafted my 'luck', I used it for myself. Before the overdrafted 'luck' was used up, I still had a relatively lucky period.

It's not like this time, all the 'luck' of overdraft has been given to Rhodes, and now she has entered the state of 'possession of the declining god'.

Reaching out to cover her torn clothes, Baccarat continued to move forward.

Click——

The high heels under her feet broke instantly, and Baccarat staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"Is everything okay?"

Nia rushed to Baccarat's side and helped her sit next to her.

“Not so good...”

Baccarat's face turned slightly pale, and cold sweat fell from her forehead.

The break of the high-heeled shoes just now sprained her ankle and unfortunately injured the bone. Now waves of severe stinging pains were stimulating her nerves.

There were also bursts of severe pain in his lower abdomen, and his whole body seemed to have problems at the same time.

The reaction this time was much stronger than before!

And just after Bacara was helped by Nia to sit next to her, the competition on the gaming table officially began. Garp put the dices of Rhodes and Crocodile into the dice cup at the same time, and shook both hands at the same time.

Garp himself was not good at gambling, nor did he have any special dice-rolling skills. He just relied on his brute strength to shake the dice cups in his hands almost into afterimages.

Bang! !

Two dice cups were placed on the table by Garp at the same time.

"bring it on!"

Crocodile looked at Rhodes and motioned for Rhodes to reveal it first.

Rhodes reached out and opened his dice cup.

"One by one, three points in total!"

Looking at the dice that Rhodes unveiled, Crocodile grinned.

There are three dice in total. How can we lose this round?

"No way..."

Nia looked at Baccarat, who was sweating next to her, and then looked at the dice in front of Rhodes on the gaming table.

Baccarat must have indeed overdrafted her 'luck' to Rhodes. Why did Rhodes reveal the smallest number of points?

Crocodile grinned, picked up his cigar with his right hand, slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke, and then slowly opened the dice cup in front of him with the golden hook of his left hand.

"???"

Seeing the situation in his dice cup, the smile on Crocodile's face instantly froze, and then he slowly turned his head to look at Garp.

"Hahaha, I'm sorry!"

Garp smiled insincerely.

"The right hand is more powerful."

Inside Crocodile's dice cup, there was only a ball of powder.

The dice inside were shattered into a pile of powder by Garp's violent shaking just now.

"It seems I have better luck."

Rhodes picked up the red wine in front of him, took a sip, and then frowned slightly.

He still prefers beer to the taste of red wine.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Crocodile suddenly laughed a few times, and his eyes turned on Rhodes and Garp.

In his heart, he had already acquiesced that they were together.

‘Could it be that the world government has noticed something? ’

Crocodile's head turned rapidly, his body leaned back casually, leaned on the back of his chair, put the cigar into his mouth again, and looked at Rhodes opposite.

"The Navy hero actually teamed up with the new Shichibukai. Tell me, what does the World Government want me to do?"

"I didn't team up with Rod!"

Garp pinched his nose, then wiped it on the tablecloth in front of him.

"I've already said it, it's just because the power of my right hand is greater, and I couldn't control it for a while."

"That's right, why don't you want to believe it, it's just because my luck is better than yours?"

Rod immediately spoke up and spread his hands to Crocodile.

Seeing the reactions of the two, Crocodile confirmed his guess.

This new Shichibukai must have reached some cooperation with the World Government.

If the World Government didn't have any troubles and wanted to take action, then they must have noticed some of their intentions and wanted to take this opportunity to test them.

Crocodile's palm under the table moved unconsciously on his legs, and various thoughts turned rapidly in his mind.

"In the final analysis, it's just that I'm not as skilled as you. Just say what you want to say."

After hearing Crocodile's words, Rhode didn't continue teasing him.

Crocodile is not the kind of stubborn pirate, but one of the few pirates who can think with his brain, and the smarter the person, the more he likes to think wildly!

The bet just now and his own reaction must have raised all kinds of doubts in his heart.

Thinking of this, Rhode leaned forward slightly and looked directly at Crocodile opposite him.

"There is a question that I care about, and I want to confirm it with you personally."

As Rhode's voice fell, the whole room became quiet, and Smoker, who had been sitting behind Garp and smoking, also stopped his actions and looked at Crocodile with burning eyes.

And Crocodile, who noticed Smoker's gaze, was more certain of his guess in his heart and waited for Rhode's question.

"Mr. Crocodile, not long after you became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea more than ten years ago, you came to Alabasta and started a business here. You fought against the pirates who came here as a 'hero' and protected the peace of this city. It is precisely because of your arrival that this originally ordinary oasis city has developed rapidly and become the most prosperous city in Alabasta."

"You have perfectly performed the duties of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, fighting pirates and protecting the people. You are simply a hero here! And the people here are grateful to you, worship you, support you, and even call you the 'hero' of Alabasta!"

"It's just that I got some news that is different from what ordinary people know!"

"You are not a hero of this city, let alone a hero of this country. The reason why you have stayed in Alabasta is just for your own plan!"

"Where did this kid know my plan about [Pluto]? '

Crocodile's face remained unchanged, thinking about where he had revealed a flaw that attracted the attention of the World Government and sent the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Navy heroes to work together.

‘Is this guy really planning to [usurp the country]?’

Smoker stared at Crocodile, paying attention to his reaction.

“You want to destroy this country and overturn the world!”

‘As long as I can get [Pluto], I will not hesitate to completely destroy this country! What I pursue is to use the power of [Pluto] to become the new [Pirate King] and completely overturn the world!’

Crocodile’s hands under the table clenched instantly.

Why, there are always people who stop me?

‘If Crocodile really completes the plan of [usurpation], then even if this country continues to exist in name, it is actually destroyed! And once he really succeeds in usurping the country as a pirate, I am afraid it will have a subversive impact on the world!’

Smoker’s body tensed up unconsciously, and smoke came out of him.

Although the cigar in his mouth is no longer burning, the [justice] in his heart is burning!

“Can you please answer this question?”

Rod looked at Crocodile with sharp eyes, and there was a sense of oppression in his voice.

"You have been staying in Alabasta. What secrets are you brewing?"

The room fell silent instantly. Everyone's eyes fell on Crocodile. Even the waiter in the room held his breath and looked at Crocodile.

They seemed to have heard some great news!

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

After a moment of silence, Crocodile laughed his signature laugh again, but compared to before, his laugh had a little more subtle anger.

"Don't you all know it already!"

The next moment, with Crocodile as the center, an invisible force spread, and everything in the room turned into ashes and was instantly annihilated.

"Erosion of Samsara!"
